Credit goes to Norbanus for this wonderful poem. Much thanks for the gift.
Nero: The Legend and Fiend
To read the mind of madness, as a rule
Is wrought with pitfalls leading but to grief.
When Nero smiled Rome nodded as one fool,
most jumping in to hide their disbelief
But there were some, who understood his ways,
who didn't blab while planning a new track.
The story of his end goes on days.
His corpus tossed into the trash out back.
The gladius then sheathed, or so they say.
His guards had done the job without a hitch.
His broken dream of art had gone its way.
His "Qualis antifex" now in the ditch.
We read of his great falling from his perch,
did he think that he’d left Rome in a lurch?
Welcome friends!
This insane, wild, and honest blog is home to my thoughts, observations, and daily musings on whatever may arise. Enjoy your stay.
I hope you have other adults that you can talk to or a therapist. This sounds like far too much stress for a young person to handle. I feel badly for your Mom and brother but you are younger, need protection and sounds like you feel the need to protect your Mom. You are too young to handle any of this without support. Find someone through school, on-line, that you can trust with all this. It is draining. Take care of your mental health first because that is all you can do right now. Hugs go out to you. It will change at some point but, only with the right help, will it become a positive. Always here to listen.
I'm so sorry, Miranda. I wish I had some magic words to offer that would fix this or comfort you. This is not an easy situation to endure. Sending hugs your way.
I do hope you are taking care of yourself. I know your mother needs help and support, but you need to look after you first, or else you will not be able to help anyone.
Try to let things go. It's not easy but you can. You remind me of my granddaughter. She has anxiety and self image issues. As a teenager you are constantly changing, up one day and down the next. As you get older things will become clearer. That does not help today I know. If walking helps you, walk every day. Write out all your feeling, everything. No one else needs to see it. If you draw, draw what you are feeling, again no one needs to see it. Be kind to yourself, you are worth it. Fight for you. Know that there are those who will listen if you just need to rant, cry or whatever. You are loved.
Like Alex Grimborn said, we'll always be here listening whenever you want to talk. I hope those people feel sorry for the terrible things they've done. Sometimes, there are many things that I regret in my life, sometimes those regrets help my life become better, and sometimes they only cloud my future.
*What's your favorite Thanksgiving memory or food?*
My favorite Thanksgiving memory was last year's. I was given my own can of cranberry sauce, and there were three cats(Tiki, Tiger, and Puff). There was SO much food, but my stomach was like the Tardis from Doctor Who, and there were SO many people. Sometimes I like to think of good memories or make good memories to put aside some regrets.
Remember that if you ever need to talk to someone I'm here. Also, if they don't like you for you then they don't deserve you. I've had to drop a couple of friends and toxic friends because they didn't accept all of me.
I have to agree with Alexi because she is right, you are a beautiful girl and you have you're whole life ahead of you. When you graduate high school, you will know where you want to go to college and take up something you really like or enjoy. Just enjoy your teen years and don't be too hard on yourself.
I felt the same way, getting older after getting out of high school. Too many high expectations. But, you'll be okay. You'll learn to find the great things that make getting older okay.
